What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged multiple assessments in a serviced office building on grounds including tone of comparable valuations and material change in circumstances from building works disturbance. The parties agreed in principle before the hearing and submitted agreed valuations reflecting a reduction in the main tone rate from £395/m² to £380/m² with 4-8% allowances for building works disturbance. The tribunal ratified the agreed values submitted by the appellant after both parties confirmed agreement.
